EURO 2028: what can be planned before the final draw

The 51 date-and-stadium slots are published, but team assignments will only follow the 2027 final draw.

What is already confirmed

EURO 2028 will run from 9 June to 9 July across England, the Republic of Ireland, Scotland and Wales. UEFA has published the complete venue schedule for all 51 matches.

That makes city-first planning possible: travellers can compare London, Cardiff, Dublin, Glasgow, Manchester, Liverpool, Newcastle and Birmingham by date and tournament stage.

What is not yet known

The national teams attached to each venue slot are not known. Those assignments depend on qualifying and the final tournament draw, expected in December 2027.

A responsible planner can therefore save a team, stage and host-city preference now, but should not claim that a particular country will play in a particular city.

What to do now

  • Save the national team and number of matches you want
  • Choose a preferred tournament stage or host city
  • Keep flights and accommodation flexible until the draw
  • Use UEFA’s official ticket announcements rather than resale claims
